Goals of the Week: Giornata 6
By: Francesco |
1 Comment
I’m just going to throw it out there: this might be the worst goals of the week post of all time. Nothing spectacular at all this weekend, most goals were very plain and ordinary. Of the 18 goals scored this weekend, about 3 are top goal worthy. But let’s see this week’s goals of the [...]

Sampdoria are top of the table alone for the first time in 18 years. A week ago I wrote an article saying that Sampdoria could be the surprise of the season, and right now that hypothesis is still holding up. While it’s almost impossible for them to win the scudetto and considering the fact that [...]
Video of the week: Serie A Bloopers (including a mistake by Buffon!)
By: Francesco | 4 Comments
I always like to watch videos of bloopers, and this time I’ve found a Serie A blooper video from the early 2000’s. Always entertaining, and it includes a mistake from Buffon!! (how often do you see those?)
Video after the jump.

Despite having a strong U-21 side, Italy’s other youth national teams don’t really have a glorious history. All of Italy’s youth focus is directed to the U-21 team, and you never hear anything about the other sides. In addition, besides the U-21 team Italy’s youth sides have never really won anything, despite participating at many [...]

Lots of goals scored this week, with only one 0-0 draw (Napoli-Udinese) and many teams scoring 3+ goals. There were some nice ones this week. Goals after the jump.

Since there is a mid-week round this Wednesday, I’ll get a super Weekend Round-up post up on Thursday. If you look at the Serie A table right now, you’ll see that leading the top of the table is Sampdoria (tied with Juventus, but ahead of goals scored). Sampdoria have never won their first 4 games [...]
The Renaissance of Roberto Baronio
By: Francesco | 10 Comments
Let’s start by saying that Roberto Baronio isn’t exactly a household name in Italian calcio. The casual fan may not even know who Roberto Baronio is or what position he plays (Baronio is a classic regista that plays in front of the defense and dictates the play. His passing skills are excellent, especially his long [...]

Some nice goals this week. We’re still very early into the season, but two possible goal of the year candidates were scored this weekend. Samuel Eto’o’s strike vs. Parma and Giandomenico Mesto’s screamer vs. Napoli are joys to behold. Goals of the week after the jump.

After 3 giornate, only 3 clubs are still at full points: Sampdoria, who defeated Atalanta 1-0 in Bergamo with a goal from Daniele Mannini; Juventus, who saw Lazio off with a 2-0 win thanks to Martin Caceres and David Trezeguet; and Genoa, who thumped Napoli 4-1 with Sergio Floccari, Giandomenico Mesto, Hernan Crespo, and Houssine [...]
International week is boring
By: Francesco | 11 Comments
International week is boring. There’s really no news from Serie A, and we get a week of Lippi dodging questions about Mourinho and Cassano. Here’s the highlights from today’s game. Italy won 2-0, finally a decent performance. Pirlo excelled as a trequartista, Zambrotta actually ran up and down the wing, De Rossi is the most [...]
